Malfunctions and information messages


System limitation (Navigation data not available)
If the Infotainment Navigation submits no data, a message regarding the limi-
tation of the system function appears. Check whether the map documents are
up to date or whether the vehicle is currently in a location for which no naviga-
tion data are available.

Fatigue detection

The fatigue detection system (following known as system) recommends the
driver taking a break from driving when, because of the driver's steering be-
haviour, driver fatigue can be detected.
From the starting of the journey, the system evaluates the steering behaviour
at speeds 65-200 km/h. If, while driving, there have been changes in the steer-
ing behaviours that are evaluated by the system as indicating possible fatigue,
a break recommendation is issued.
Conditions under which a break from driving is detected by the system
▶ The vehicle is stopped and the ignition switched off.
▶ The vehicle is stopped, the seat belt removed and the driver's door opened.
The vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes.
▶
248
Driving
If none of these conditions are met or if the driving style is not changed, the
system recommends a driving break again after 15 minutes.
The system can be activated/deactivated in menu
tance in the infotainment system.
Pause recommendation
The icon appears and the following message for a few seconds in the display
of the instrument cluster  and a message about the detected fatigue. An au-
dible signal is also emitted.
WARNING
Please take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance
■
systems » page 208, in section Introduction.
For the driving ability is always the driver's responsibility. Never drive if
■
you feel tired.
The system may not detect all cases where a break is needed.
■
Therefore, take regular, sufficient breaks during long trips.
■
There will be no system warning during the so-called micro-sleep.
■
Note
In some situations, the system may evaluate the driving incorrectly and thus
■
mistakenly recommend a break (e.g. sporty driving, adverse weather condi-
tions or poor road conditions).
The system is designed primarily for use on motorways.

Tyre pressure monitoring


Introduction
The tyre pressure monitoring function (following known as system) monitors
the tyre pressure while driving.
If the tyre inflation pressure changes, the warning light
strument cluster and an audible signal sounds
The system can only function properly if the tyres have the prescribed inflation
pressure and these pressure values are stored in the system.
